I would be standoffish, due to Ubersmith alleged recent history of price increases. Admittedly... I am very skeptical about the concept of datacenter management or billing software providers charging a big monthly fee, plus extra per-client and extra per managed-device. That doesn't mean it's always a bad idea; it's just really annoying. If smart phones were sold like Enterprise software.... "Customer: How much for this smart phone?" "Sales clerk: How many people do you plan to call with it?" "Customer: Uh, 5 or 6 friends and family members." "Sales clerk: I see... well that will be $300 plus $25 per contact, so the total comes to $450. In 5 years the newer model will be $499 for you." "Customer: Wait... I also need to receive calls from 3 important business clients" "Sales clerk: In that case, the same smart phone costs $2500, plus an extra $100/month license fee for each business contact, and a 30% annual maintenance -- if you fail to renew before the end of the 12 months, it will deactivate and it will be full price to turn it back on." -- -JH
